NBA's strongest prince

Chapter 234 The Western Conference Finals End
When the defense can't completely suppress the opponent, the Spurs really feel difficult.

Duncan can play on both ends of the offense and defense, and is still very strong, but he is not an offensive player after all. Even if he breaks out on the offensive end, it will be difficult for him to be like Nowitzki. Everyone has different characteristics.

How to play in the second half, whether they will be swept, the Spurs are still under pressure.

But they really have nothing to do, they can only watch the performance of a few strong points.

This is often the case in the playoffs. Ordinary players dare not play, and teams dare not let them play.

In fact, there is almost no hope for the Spurs series now, and many people may have already looked away. Whether they can win one or two games can only depend on the performance of the players on the court.

Sun's locker room was open, and he was very calm while laughing and laughing.

There are really not many changes for the Spurs now, and they are relatively relaxed.

As long as the Suns themselves have no problems, the game will basically have no problems.

The Mavericks had a back-to-back fight, but the Spurs were more like biting the bullet.

They still made a slight change, that is, let Finley start. Although it is a bit wasteful, Finley does not have any outstanding performance on the bench now, so he can just come to the starting lineup as a pitcher.

But the Spurs' tactics have not changed, and the lineup can only be said to be a little more flexible.

This time Parker was pretty good, of course, mainly because Duncan showed enough fighting power.

On the offensive end, he can play in the low post, on the defensive end, he can help defend and send out big caps, almost omnipotent.

With such an omnipotent player, the Spurs are not yet an opponent, and they have nothing to do.

When Duncan was desperate, the Spurs still caught up with the score a few times. Unfortunately, they were unlucky, or they did not have the ability to continue to output. Marion suddenly came and hit two three-pointers, and beat the Spurs again.

Duncan's outbreak was not durable enough, and Parker was not stable enough. The key is that the Spurs still don't have enough manpower.

More than four minutes into the second half, Ginobili went on the court to continue scoring, but he and Parker rarely broke out at the same time, because they both needed the ball, so the situation did not get better.

Ginobili played well as a substitute in these two games, at the All-Star level, but he was still a bit short of winning the Suns.

Only relying on strong players to win the Suns, unless it is a big explosion, scoring 20 or 30 points will not affect the overall situation.

The Spurs are actually very strong, but they are a bit mediocre. Neither Parker nor Ginobili are superstars. Duncan can't handle it alone, and they are not willing to invest in role players.

During the rotation period, the Suns increased their offensive power as always.

The Spurs hope that the Suns can make one turnover and not play a strong offense, but this seems to be a fantasy.

The main reason is that the Suns have a lot of strong players, and it doesn't matter if one or two players are not in good condition.

They have a fast pace, and after a few come back, there will definitely be gains, and it is really sad that the Spurs cannot grasp the rounds in which the Suns did not succeed.

In the final quarter, Duncan was still very strong. Parker helped him share some of the burden earlier, and he distributed his physical strength very well.

He is now the player with the most playing time for the Spurs, and he has also stabilized the number of fouls, so he can let go and fight.

"Duncan has scored 30+, and now the Suns are not leading much. Can the Spurs avoid a sweep?"

"The Spurs are trying to shoot more three-pointers now, but except for Manu Ginobili, everyone else's shooting rate is not good. The Spurs are too accustomed to defense, and now they are a bit powerless to attack."

"Looking at it all the way, the sun is still strong, and it is very stable. It was stable in the regular season, and now I find that it is still the same in the playoffs."

"Russell didn't know it, he scored as many points as Duncan, and he had a big double-double. He's not alone..."

"Why is it so easy for Russell to take the data, and the movements are not explosive, and it feels like anyone can do it."

"That's an illusion. Russell's talent is absolutely bursting. Before passing the ball like him on the court, he was hit by his teammates..."

Fans feel that the Spurs are powerless, and the Suns' advantage can be determined without professional vision.

The Spurs can also be considered a resilient team, but they themselves feel that there is little hope.

After Russell played, they did not continue to narrow the gap.

As the fourth quarter deepened, Russell returned to the court, and the Suns became the strongest lineup.

At this time, the Spurs had stopped playing routines and let Ginobili hold the ball from the outside, while Duncan looked for opportunities inside and did not easily go out to cover.

Halfway through the final quarter, Ginobili hit consecutive three-pointers, and the Spurs really saw hope.

But then, Russell responded with a three-pointer.

The Spurs also thought that Russell might respond to the ball, but they still couldn't defend it.

Both Parker and Ginobili took turns defending, and they would rather the Suns hand the ball to Joe Johnson.

However, at the critical moment, Russell hit it.

The gap between the two teams is not very big, and the Suns are leading by 5 points again.

At this time, Duncan also worked very hard inside, and his free throw percentage improved in the final quarter.

Duncan's rebounds and blocks are the highest on the court, but the Suns players are not afraid of him.

No matter how strong Duncan is, the Spurs will also lose. The Suns have a winner mentality.

As time went by, the sun's attack on Duncan became tighter and tighter.

They are worse in confrontation, so they defend the pass. Marion and Wallace are in front of each other, and it is really difficult for Duncan to get the ball easily.

So the Spurs can only play from the outside, and Ginobili often dares to play at this time.

It's just that after Russell came up, the Spurs' score did not catch up again.

The Spurs' home fans lost all confidence, and some young fans burst into tears.

For the time being, no one has left the field, because the score gap is really not that big, but it is difficult for the Spurs to attack in one wave.

At 1 minute and 43 seconds, Finley made a 3-pointer after receiving a pass from Duncan.

At this time, the Suns still pinched Duncan, so Duncan could pass the ball to the outside for a shot.

It's a pity that after the Spurs made a shot, they were still 6 points away, and it was very difficult to come back.

Duncan then forcibly made a foul, but soon the Suns counterattacked and Wallace hit a 2+1.

Seeing that there is hope and then remembering hard, Russell also feels very cruel.

But that's how it is on the court, and the Suns will go all out at any time.

At 32 seconds, Ginobili hit another 3-pointer, and the score gap between the two sides came within 5 points.

But there was no time, so what to do, the Spurs still wanted to defend first, but Russell didn't play cards according to common sense, half of the control time was reached, and he suddenly activated and hit two points.

The Spurs wanted a quick three-pointer, but Ginobili missed it this time.

Duncan grabbed the offensive rebound and remembered it, but was slapped out by Marion, who was helping to defend.

There is really no time now, and the Spurs don't want to give up yet, but they missed the outside shot.

At the last moment, it is really not that easy to face the defensive outside shot.

This time the sun protected the rebound, the game is over!
